7 Interesting Things About Myself:

1. I wore braces for 6 years as a child... Now, I grind my teeth, have TMJ and wear retainers at night (oooh, that's an attractive visual -- at least I got rid of the head gear).
2. I am a night owl... I hate getting up in the morning -- total grouch.
3. I worked as a waitress for 9 years through high school, college and my first year as a teacher. (It was a bakery and I ate whole pies for dinner every night I worked! Honest.)
4. Although he's old enough to be my father, I have a HUGE crush on Dustin Hoffman. I fell in love when I watched Midnight Cowboy during a cinema class in college.
   
5. I have OCD when it comes to wiping things down... it brings me comfort and relief to wipe up crumbs, dust, or to clean anything. I can't resist wiping the toilet paper dust off of the holders in people's bathrooms.
   
6. Our dream is to live in a small cottage in London. One day. Sigh
   
7. I don't have a favorite song or movie, but one of my favorite poems is "When I Say 'I am a Christian'" by Carol Wimmer.
